The purpose of the present study was to test the hypothesis that the magnitude of hormonal concentration alterations during a prolonged military field exercise with constant energy intake (EI) is influenced by changes in energy deficit (ED) induced by varying the exercise intensity. Basal serum hormone concentrations were measured in a group of healthy young male volunteers (n = 7) during a 20-day field exercise. During the first week of the exercise, the average ED was 4,000 kcal/day (P-I), in the second week only 450 kcal/day (P-II), and in the last week 1,000 kcal/day (P-III). During the first 5 days of the field exercise, significant increases in cortisol (COR, +32%) and growth hormone (GH, +616%) concentrations were observed, while insulin (INS, -70%), total testosterone (TES, -27%), free testosterone (TES(free), -26%) decreased. However, after these initial responses, COR and GH returned to the pre-exercise level by the beginning of P-II. Also TES and TES(free) recovered to the pre-exercise level by the beginning of P-III, and INS by the end of P-III. The concentration of TES (+29%) increased above the pre-exercise level by the beginning of P-III. Serum thyroxin (T(4)) concentration was significantly lesser (-12%) and urine urea concentration significantly higher (+78%) after the field exercise than before it. Therefore, it can be concluded that the lower levels of ED in the second and third phase (ED <1,000 kcal/day) allowed recovery of hormonal changes observed in the first phase with ED much greater than 1,000 kcal/day.
在能量摄入恒定(EI)的长时间军事野外演习期间,激素浓度变化的幅度受运动强度变化引起的能量亏空(ED)变化的影响。在一组健康年轻男性志愿者(n = 7)进行20天野外演习期间,测量其基础血清激素浓度。在演习的第一周,平均能量亏空为4000千卡/天(P-I),第二周仅为450千卡/天(P-II),最后一周为1000千卡/天(P-III)。在野外演习的前5天,观察到皮质醇(COR,+32%)和生长激素(GH,+616%)浓度显著升高,而胰岛素(INS,-70%)、总睾酮(TES,-27%)、游离睾酮(TES(free),-26%)降低。然而,在这些初始反应之后,COR和GH在P-II开始时恢复到运动前水平。TES和TES(free)在P-III开始时也恢复到运动前水平,INS在P-III结束时恢复到运动前水平。到P-III开始时,TES浓度(+29%)升高至高于运动前水平。野外演习后血清甲状腺素(T(4))浓度显著降低(-12%),尿尿素浓度显著升高(+78%)。因此,可以得出结论,第二和第三阶段较低水平的能量亏空(ED <1000千卡/天)使得在第一阶段观察到激素变化得以恢复,第一阶段的能量亏空远大于1000千卡/天。
